| Obverse description | Bare head of Augustus facing right, rendered in a naturalistic portrait style typical of Augustan coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic features with a slightly draped shoulder visible at the bust truncation. The legend runs along the right and upper periphery of the flan, partially visible due to the irregular striking. The portrait is executed in relatively high relief with fine detailing in the facial features and hair. |

| Obverse lettering | CAESAR AVGVST PONT MAX TRIBVNIC POT (Translation: Caesar Augustus, Pontifex Maximus, Tribunicia Potestate. Caesar Augustus, high priest, holder of tribunician power.) |
| Reverse description | Large S C (Senatus Consultum) in the center of the field, rendered in bold relief, serving as the principal design element of this senatorial bronze issue. The letters are well-formed and prominent, occupying the majority of the reverse field. The moneyer's legend encircles the central S C inscription, running along the upper and lower periphery of the coin. The flat field and bold central motif are characteristic of Augustan As coinage struck under the authority of the tresviri monetales. |
